“…In the writing of the two essays in this book, I went to great lengths to press my readings of Achebe’s first novel, things Fall Apart, into service in an effort to see hopeful signs in otherwise quite bleak circumstances in Nigeria and Africa…in each of the respective readings of Achebe’s novel in these two essays, I was writing under very great pressure of one and of discursive context….I was also constrained by the pressure of etiquette, the celebration of the anniversary of Achebe’s novel being a festive occasion in which one could not afford to be seen as being too sanguine in expressing one’s bitterness about the state of things in Nigeria, Africa and the world.”

A new history of a turbulent century

Known as the African giant, Nigeria’s story is complex and often contradictory. How, despite the ravages o colonialism, civil war, ongoing economic disappointment and most recently the Biko haram insurgency, has the country managed to stay together for a hundred years? Why, despite an abundance of oil, mineral and agricultural wealth, have so many of its people remained in poverty? These are the key questions explored by Richard Bourne in this remarkable and wide-ranging account of Nigeria’s history, from its creation in 1914 to the historic 2015 elections and beyond.

Thought Of A Village Boy

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

ByOluwadele L. Boluwatife

Oluwadele, in my opinion, has succeeded in bringing together an assembly of his writings over the years. The book – Thoughts of a Village Boy, represents a compendium of different areas of human endeavor and expression of author’s views on different issues in our national life.

The book is very rich in events and ideas from which people of all ages can learn. He is a very knowledgeable and highly talented writer. He has succeeded in prompting whoever reads this book to think deeply on how our country can be better governed and the role elites should as a matter of priority assume from now on. His take on his perception of Tinubu’s Philosophy of Poverty Management is worth considering. I believe the message is for our politicians and those aspiring office holders.

Nigeria’s Story Is My Story

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

This is my sixth book and one in which I’ve been a bit more revealing. It should make very interesting reading because it is not a boring rant about economic and financial issues, but interesting dialogues on matters of mostly Nigeria’s sociopsychology and aspects of history. I personally enjoy such discourses better than the drone on the stiff subject of money and how it is made.

I think this is a more important aspect of the development quest of African people because from a systems point of view we should interrogate our lifeviews, our paradigms and of perspectives. Once the sociopsychological aspects are dealt with, development and progress becomes fairly easy and sustainable. The writings here reflect my mindset and perspective which fuses into my understanding of the larger issues towards ensuring that my people attain a better existence in this present world where no nation waits for another.
